pics, videos, and a prayer request

Here's some recent pics of Evan and some videos. I am also closing with a special prayer request and some song lyrics. Here's a couple of Evan with his mommy. Here he is after his bath. Here he is with daddy's hat on. He's not a real big fan of tummy time but he's doing better with it. He's not crawling but can hold himself up pretty good. He also spun around while he was holding himself up...it was gradual, though. Here's a pic taken at the Josh McDowell conference. I really didn't have any good ones taken of him but it was a great conference. It was really an encouraging time and I felt like I learned a lot. If you haven't read any Josh McDowell, I definitely recommend him. He has an amazing testimony. He basically set out to disprove Christianity but found it to be true in every way, starting with the reliability of the Bible.There's a couple of more videos at the end of this blog. For some reason, they wouldn't go with the other one here.

As I close, I want to share some prayer requests and some praise lyrics to reflect on. First, I want to mention a neighbor who has expressed a desire to study the Bible. His name is Benjamin and he is my 'tocayo', this is a title for two people that share the same name. I ask you to pray for him that there would a chance to study the Bible together and that God would reveal himself to us in that study. I ask you to pray that God will bless Benjamin and his family. I also want you all to pray for Sunday, that is our first service/fellowship event. The weather forecast isn't looking too good but we know that God has power over that stuff. I'm just praying that all the details will come together and for the people that will come and that God's will be done in our group on that day and in the future. I hope to have some pics from the event posted on the blog later on. Jesus, all for Jesus, by Robin Mark Jesus, all for Jesus, All I am and have and ever hope to be. Jesus, all for Jesus, All I am and have and ever hope to be. All of my ambitions, hopes and plans I surrender these into Your hands. All of my ambitions, hopes and plans I surrender these into Your hands. For it's only in Your will that I am free, For it's only in Your will that I am free, Jesus, all for Jesus, All I am and have and ever hope to be. This is a prayer for me, my family and the new church...Here recently he's started waving his arms like this, especially if he is happy or excited, which is pretty often. He doesn't cry much but here's one of him crying. I think his teeth were bothering him and it was like he was trying to tell us that. At least that's what I thought.
